Default Question regarding valve cover object.

First off I am working on my '89 coupe. Supposedly the PCV valve is located in the left bank valve cover (which it is as I have already replaced the grommet). On the right bank valve cover there is something else protruding from the rear top of the valve cover that resembles a PCV only smaller. The actual device is physically shorter but, the grommet appears to be the same as the one on the left side. The L98 isn't supposed to have two PCV valves is it? What is it or what could it be? Is it possible that someone has replaced the right side valve cover with a left side and tee'd in two PVC valves (I hope not). Any suggestions?
I really appreciated all of the assistance that I have received from my postings on this forum. This place is great as everyone has been so helpful even though some of my questions my be stupid ones. Thanks again.

I replaced the PCV valve. Should I replace the air out on the right and if so, what is it called?
